Weekend Roundup #1

Today we bring you the first in a new series on the Awwwards blog. Every Friday we'll round up the freshest news of the week. The selection will be taken from the stuff we've Tweeted over the week that you guys have clicked, retweeted, shared, passed on...in other words, the stuff you think is most interesting. We'll put it all in one place so you don't miss out on any important Tweets that may have got lost in your feed.

A quality selection of articles to read at your leisure over the weekend, which we hope you will find useful.
